Then why aren’t you more careful making assumptions about others?

I haven't made one. My point still stands. This level of premeditated violence that was not done under duress (i.e. literal or metaphorical gun point) was an act of complete free will and are the actions of a psychopath.

Short of a lobotomy or extremely strong psychiatric drugs some people are beyond reform.

It's amusing that you come across as directing your hostility to me on the Internet, which I'm sure you will deny. I'm not the one burning people here while their kids watch.

Your assumption was that people who commit domestic violence are “psychopaths”.

This is not true in the overwhelming majority of cases.

If I was being hostile to you it would be far more obvious. I have been short, maybe a little condescending, but not even remotely hostile.

And neither am I???
